Anyone ever had a top rechromed?
Wonder how they strip the old chrome off the recessed areas. |

I am confident people have, but I am also confident that repairing and rechroming an original lid would far exceed the cost of a reproduction chrome lid... which is why I am going to get around to buying a new one for my car.

I would think you're right about that...No one sells the entire breather assy but Ames has the lid. They don't come up often and that looks like a nice one.

I had a top re-chromed last year. It was $225 to strip, repair the rust spots and the 2 dents that were in the lid and then go through the chrome process. The lid tured out great. I know that is considerably more expensive than purchasing a new lid. I know at "Finishing Touch" for them to re-chrome a lid is around $400-$500. I just wanted the original lid that came with my car so I coughed up a little more money on an already blown apart budget.

I got an estimate from The Chrome Shop a few months back for "around $600". I said thanks but no thanks, I'll keep the repro lid for the time being. He understood.
